Default heritage riser's
i have a heritage 05 with fat boy bars on, and have just ordered a set of deluxe riser's, to lift the bars about 1.5", do you have to take all the tin ware of the front or is it possible to do it with this in situ.

i replaced my risers on 04 fatboy and didn't have to take any of the front tin off. i'd bet your heritage you won't have to either.

I replaced the stock riser's on my wifes Heritage with 2 1/2" pull back risers and did not have to remove anything except the windshield. Did not have to remove any tin.

3/4 I think. You will need a long extension.

Stock cables worked fine.
